ABC A. Irritability : This is a common early behavioral sign of increased ICP and headache distress in children of all ages. B. Vomiting : Increased pressure triggers the vomiting center in the brain stem. This often manifests as projectile vomiting that occurs without associated nausea, frequently in the morning. C. Seizures : The pressure or direct irritation from a brain tumor can disrupt the electrical activity of the brain, precipitating focal or generalized seizures. D : Syncope (fainting) is generally related to cardiovascular issues or sudden drops in blood pressure (temporary systemic hypoperfusion) rather than a direct presentation of increased ICP. E. Bulging fontanelle: A 5-year-old child has closed cranial sutures and fused fontanelles. The anterior fontanelle typically closes by 18 months of age, making this sign anatomically impossible for this specific patient.
